Hi ,
I am new to this and was wondering if anyone has some recommendations for a clinic for gender selection. I live in Australia. I have three beautiful boys and would love to have a baby girl. There is so much information out there and it's very difficult to know where to go. The one thing that is very difficult to find is any clinic recommendation.
Any info or help would be so appreciated.
Thanks.
Hi & Welcome! I also live in Australia!
Im sorry I cant help you on the gender selection clinic, but Im sure someone else will.
All the very best with getting your little wee lady!

Welcome. I'm also mum of 3 boys.
I just cycled at HRC and can't really fault them at all. I did get pregnant but unfortunately m/c. Their clinic is state of the art and the staff are really beautiful.
I would wait to hear from people who went to Thailand as well as this would be a good option also. I'm not sure of success compared to HRC but I'm sure someone will chime I'm.
Where in Australia are you from.
Good luck.
Thank you.
So sorry for you that you had m/c. I really feel for you.
HRC sounds great but we could only afford to go the once, whereas, Thailand we could afford to go a couple of times. So unsure what to do re: costs and success rates.
Hope you get your little girl.
I'm in Sydney, where are you?
Thanks.
Thank you.
Hi there
I am also from Sydney Australia and mum to three gorgeous boys. I have completed one failed cycle with SART in bangkok. Today i have just completed my second cycle - egg retrieval. We got 9 eggs so fingers crossed for a good result for this one.
I can't really fault SART. It has been easy in terms of working with Genea in Sydney and quite seamless transitioning to the care here in Bangkok. The clinic is clean and modern and the dr is very nice. But I guess the proof will be in the pudding. I have 6 days to find out if we get to the first hurdle for the girl we are dreaming of.
Good Luck!
Im not heading to SART for two weeks so cant give any recomendations but just wanted to say Hi and Welcome
Eliz are you going through Dr L ?
Hi there
I am working with Dr Bowman in Sydney. Really hoping this cycle works. We will miss each other - i am back to Sydney tonight. Wishing you the best of luck
there are a few of us heading to SART in the coming months so we should be able to give you some good advice.
I have 3 boys also and keen to add some pink to the mix :)
Eliz are you doing a planned freeze?
What failed with the first cycle if you dont mind me asking ?
my first cycle i got 4 embryos to hatching blast for pgd testing. 2 abnormal boys and 2 healthy boys. so no transfer.
my first cycle i traveled with my husband and 3 sons - but this time I am on my own. i have had to stimm for longer this time and i just don't want to be away from my kids and work for an extra week so this cycle will be a freeze all. if i get a healthy girl i will fly back for a transfer.

thank you. I hope you get your xx too! they upped my gonal f this time. last cycle i was on 150 - this time 250 - which got me 2 extra follicles. fingers crossed! so hard to be away from my beautiful boys for so long.
will this be your first try? did the doctors tell you how many try's would be reasonable? and also wondering about your planned freeze - why did you choose that path?
This is my first try and the Dr has put me on 150 also , im 32 and my pretesting was good ,im also on the Antagonist protocol and i am almost finished 21 days on the pill
What is your age if you dont mind me asking , and your pretesting/protocol ect
I did choose to do a planned freeze because of only having to leave the kids 5 days ,and also because i just felt i would do better with a FET , just a gut instinct !
I am older than you - 39. my pretesting was fine too. everything appears to be ok and my results are good for my age. so now i just need some good luck! It is hard to leave young kids for any length of time isn't it - and its always worth coming back if you know you have the xx on ice.
I would love to hear how you go. wishing you much luck!
You too, im sending lots of healthy XX thoughts your way , make sure you let us know how you get on this time round , when will you get the results ? Did you have your DH on the olive leaf/vit c combo for more XX ?
And yes its so hard knowing im leaving the kids , but they are excited to be home alone with Grandma AKA SPOILT they keep asking us if we are leaving yet hahahaha
no olive leaf extract or vit c. Is your hubby on it? wish i had heard of this before! it wouldn't help us now though as we are using frozen sperm for this cycle - and have two more vials left if I need them...hope it works for you.
I will know the testing results by the end of next week - will let you know how I go. Will you keep me updated too. Its nice to chat to someone else on the same journey!
Off to the airport now - cant wait to get home and see my boys xx

Hi there
I am back in Sydney now since my freeze all cycle with SART. Extremely happy to report we got two healthy xx this time. So now planning to go back in January for a frozen transfer - though the wait to find out if it will work is killing me! Wondering how you were getting on mum of 4 boys. Have you headed over to bangkok yet? i have my fingers crossed for you!
